This fascinating history uncovers for the first time a largely overlooked aspect of the Dutch Golden Age : an obsession with books. Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen show how the Dutch reshaped the seventeenth-century book world and, in the process, produced and owned more books per capita than any other people in Europe.
